The Question Settled,

The question Of dividing the county
into five commissioner districts, which
has for some time been absorbing the
attention of the Hermosa Pilot and the
residents of that place, was submitted
to argument before the Hermosa lyceum
few nights ago. Our informant states
that much interest was manifested, and
that both sides Of the question was ably
championed by men who we're selected
with view TO their superior wisdom,
undoubted sagacity, clear dscernment,
and marked penetration that every
phase of the question was skillmlly dis
cussed, thoroughly ventilated, and sub
mitted 10 the most searching scrutiny,
resulting in the total rout Of the adj
yocates of the scheme, horse, foot and
dragoon. We congratulate the people
Of Custer county upon the final salts
factory adjustment Of this perplexing
and provokinglv protracted public ques-
ton,
